Between my great intuition and ability to read lips I rarely missed a thing!

So often the guys would try to play me and the only other

girl I worked with against each other!! Thankfully I nipped

that in the bud, and the reward has been a friendship lasting over thirty years now!!

I only mention it because our birthdays are a week apart,

and we still hook up annually for lunch, shaking our heads at

how quickly time has passed by!!

When we were young we would order three spanish coffees after our midnight shift, and just before last call!! Some of the less intelligent waitresses brought all six coffeesat once to our two person table. We'd laugh so hard we'd cry as the whip cream melted before our eyes onto our small table!!

Tomorrow at our luncheon we will reminisce about how we separately bought the same fancy shoes for a party and always seemed to blindly wear the same color when we went out!!We'll talk about our families, our kids and our exes, how we use to play dr. Mario or scrabble until the sun came up. Those were the good old days, before I even knew I could draw a line. The only hint an artist was hiding within was the color I used on my eyes and the huge colored bows I tied on the top of my head!No one could have imagined on-line scrabble, the world of blogging, digital edits and an immensely evolved Etch A sketchdone on a computer!

Now
we both live very different lives, but boy am I glad I still have a
friend that understands what I mean when I say" Good girls rarely make
history!!

Thanks for your comment on my blog. I loved ny I-phone and the challenge of painting on the restricted size, but was persuaded by husband to get an I-Pad because he loved his so much. And now I wouldn't want to be without it. If/when you get one, do let me know, I'm longing to meet another Pad-painter. Still love your eyes.

" Naw I don't wanna!"

"If one mother's child dies, the war is not worth it! Would you have it be your child?"" Thank God for Odd!""For me making art is all in the timing. Like a waltz, you have to wait for the perfect beat to join in!! Then it flows easily and all comes together!!!"

Be wary of the hiker who doesn't hike!There is a vessel inside all of us just waiting to be discovered!!

Let your creativity celebrate your individuality! Cozy is a place where love and comfort reside!

Art is like a pair of shoes, we all like different styles! Many artists see the same thing so differently awarding us our fascinating individuality!!
